Ask Ss to listen and look at the picture. Then number the
2names.
T may want to point out some tricks that Ss can use before
listening to the recording: 1. Not all of the people in the picture
are numbered, so Ss should focus more on listening for the
activities of the people who are numbered. 2. Ss can also limit the
possible choices of their answers by noting whether the name is
male or female.
Answers: Nancy 3 Sarah 1 David 2 Ben 5 Judy 4
Play the recording again and ask Ss to find out what’s the
matter.
Answers:

the learned words, phrases and sentence patterns, and pave the way for

learn and consolidate language knowledge in application. The role of
teachers in this link is also very important. They should be good at
providing topics and mastering the rhythm and difficulty levels of the
discussion and adjusting the discussion atmosphere. We should not only
encourage excellent students to express actively, but also pay attention to
the students with average or weak foundation and give them the
opportunity to express, even if they are just asked to repeat the statements
of other students or express whether they agree with others. Teachers should
also purposefully pre-teach the unfamiliar words possibly appearing in
1c-1d.
In addition, the demonstration of teachers' language is extremely
important. The wording should be concise, clear and easy to understand,
which is also an important language information input.

情态动词could可用于有礼貌地向对方提出要求或请求,也可用于提
出建议。它本身不能作谓语,必须和不带to的动词原形一起构成谓
语。

求。
否定形式为Could you please not...?
肯定回答:①Yes, sure./Of course. 是的,当然可以。
②No problem. 没问题。

Could/Can I come in?
②对别人的请求许可的回答,一般只用can,而不用could。

Step 3 Language points learning
1. Could I hang out with my friends after the movie?
hang out 闲逛
hang out为固定短语,此时hang的过去式和过去分词均为hung。
She is hanging out with her friends in the shopping mall.
【拓展延伸】含hang的其他常见短语:
2. Could you please pass me the salt?
pass v. 给;递;走过;通过
pass 在此处为及物动词,意为“给;递”。pass sb. sth. = pass sth.
to sb.,意为“把某物递给某人”。如果 sth. 为代词,只能用 pass
sth. to sb. 结构。
He passed me the magazine. = He passed the magazine to me.
This ball is Owen's. Please pass it to him.
【拓展延伸】 pass作动词的其他常见含义:
pass
①走过;通过 The road was so narrow that cars were unable to
pass.
②及格;合格 I was happy that I passed the exam.
③(时间) 过去;流逝 The days passed slowly.
3.①Could I borrow that book?
②Could you lend me some money?
borrow v.借;借用 lend v. 借给;借出
【易混辨析】 borrow与lend
①borrow
“借;借用”,指主语从别人处“借来”东西自己使用。
borrow sth. (from sb.)(向某人)借某物
② lend (lent, lent)“借给;借出”,指主语把自己的东西“借出”给
93别人使用。lend sth. to sb.=lend sb. sth. 把某物借给某人
【拓展延伸】
keep 也可表示“借”,是延续性动词,常与表示一段时间的状语连
用。keep sth. for some time 表示“借用某物一段时间”。而 lend 与
borrow是短暂性动词,不能与表示一段时间的状语连用。
Nick borrowed a book from the library and he lent it to me. He told me
that I could keep it for a week.
【巧学妙记】
主语借出用lend,主语借入用borrow,想要保存用keep。
4. I'll finish my homework while you help me with the dishes.
while conj. 与……同时;当……的时候;而;然而
1) while 在此处作连词,引导时间状语从句,强调在从句动作发生的
同时,主句动作也在进行。
While I was doing my homework, my father was reading a book.
2) while作连词,还可表示“而;然而”,强调两者之间的对比。
This shirt fits better while that one has a nicer style.

The Sunday Mail magazine invited parents to write about
whether they think young people should do chores at home.
Read the following letters. Which one agrees and which one
disagrees?
Reading Strategy
Skimming
This means looking quickly through a piece of writing to find the
main idea without reading every word. It is still a good idea to
read the first sentence in each paragraph a little more carefully.
The last sentence is important, too.
Ask Ss to find the topic sentence. Then show the topic
sentence to the Ss.
Ms. Miller’s opinion disagree
I do not understand why some parents make their kids help
with housework and chores at home.
And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult. I don’t
mind doing them.
Mr. Smith’s opinion agree
I think it is important for children to learn how to do chores
and help their parents with housework.
The earlier kids learn to be independent, the better it is for
their future.
Ask Ss to read the letters again and judge whether the
sentences are true or false.
( ) 1. Ms. Miller thinks kids should do chores at home.
( ) 2. According to Ms. Miller’s letter, she doesn’t think
housework is a waste of kids’ time.

evening.
1032c
According to Ms. Miller and Mr. Smith, what are the pros and
cons about kids doing chores?
Pros
Doing chores helps to develop children's independence.
·Doing chores teaches children how to look after themselves.
·It helps them to understand the idea of fairness.
·It is good for their future.
Cons
Housework is a waste of children's time.
·Children already have enough stress from school.
·Children should spend their time on their schoolwork in order to
get good grades and get into a good university.
·When they get older, they will have to do housework so there is
no
need for them to do it now.
·It is the parents' job to provide a clean and comfortable
environment at home for their children.

housework and chores at home.
make sb. do sth. 使某人做某事
make sb. do sth. 为固定结构,其中sb.后接不带to的动词不定式作宾

1053. They should spend their time on schoolwork in order to get good
grades and get into a good university.
spend time/money on sth. 在某事/物上花费时间/金钱

下:
例词 主语 宾语 常用结构
spend 人 时间或 sb. spend(s) some time/money on sth.
金钱 某人在某事/物上花费时间/金钱
sb. spend(s) some time/money doing sth.

物 做某事花费某人多长时间
(doing) sth. take(s) sb. some time
(做)某事花费某人多长时间
pay 人 金钱 sb. pay(s) some money for sth.
某人为某物付多少钱
in order to 目的是;为了
in order to表示目的,后接动词原形,其否定形式为in order not to。
In order to finish the report, he stayed up very late.
Jenny will get up earlier than usual in order to catch the first bus.
【拓展延伸】in order that也表示“为了”,其后接从句。有时可与
in order to进行转换。

It's everyone's duty to keep the environment clean and tidy.
106provide v.提供
【相关短语】
provide sb. with sth.
provide sth. for sb. 为某人提供某物
6. And anyway, I think doing chores is not so difficult. 反正我觉得干家
务也不太难。
anyway是个副词,置于句首时,其后常常用逗号与其他成分隔开。
意为“反正,仍然,依然”。
Sam didn’t get the job, but he is not unhappy because it didn’t pay well
anyway.
anyway还可以表示“不管怎样,无论如何”。
It’s just a cold. But anyway you should still see the doctor.
7. Since they live in one house with their parents, they should know that
everyone should do their part in keeping it clean and tidy.
do one's part in doing sth. 在某事上尽职责;尽本分
since conj. 因为;既然
prep., conj. & adv. 从……以后;自……以来
(1) since在此处作连词,意为“因为;既然”,引导原因状语从句,
常位于句首。
Since you don't know the boy, I'll ask someone else.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I think that doing housework is good for children. I disagree that
doing chores at home is a waste of time. Doing chores helps to
develop children's independence. And I think it's fair for children to
help their parents do something at home, because their parents
have to work hard all day, just the same as they have stress on
study. Children these days need to get good grades and take good
care of themselves as well.
I think children should share some housework with their parents,
because it's a good way to learn how to look after themselves. For
example, they should help their parents do some cooking, because
when they are alone at home, they can get themselves something
to eat.
Yours truly,

Introduce the Grimm’s Fairy Tales《格林童话》to the Ss.
Then ask the Ss the following questions.
Do you know these fairy tales?

Jacob (1785-1863) and Wilhelm Grimm (1786-1859) were two German

popular in Western countries and around the world. Jacob and Wilhelm
Grimm spent many years collecting and publishing popular folk stories.
233The versions of the stories they collected were often very
violent(暴力的) and scary — they were meant to teach people
important lessons, not just entertain and amuse. Modern versions
of their stories are often much gentler, with happier endings and
less frightening characters.
Ask the Ss the following question:
Old, traditional stories such as fairy tales and folk tales usually have
positive messages in them. So what social or moral messages did you get

Grammar Focus
Ask Ss to read the sentences in the box.
Ask the Ss the following questions:
1.How is the present perfect tense formed?
2.What adverbs are often used with the present perfect tense?
3.含现在完成时的句子如何构成一般疑问句?
Answers:1.have / has + 过去分词.
2.Already and yet.
3.将助动词have / has放在主语之前。
Grammar
现在完成时(一)
一、现在完成时的基本结构
现在完成时由“助动词have/has + 过去分词”构成,其基本句式结
构为:
① 肯定句:主语 + have/has + 过去分词 + 其他.
I have seen this film.
② 否定句:主语 + have/has not + 过去分词 + 其他.
I have not seen this film.
③ 一般疑问句:Have/Has + 主语 + 过去分词 + 其他?
肯定回答:Yes, 主语 + have/has. 否定回答:No, 主语 +
haven't/hasn't.
—Have you seen the film? —Yes, I have. / No, I haven't.
304二、过去分词的构成
1. 规则变化(与动词过去式规则一样,此类称作规则动词)
-ed的读音规则:
① 在元音或浊辅音后读[d],如tried [traɪd],lived [lɪvd]。
② 在清辅音后读[t],如worked [wɜːkt],stopped [stɒpt]。
③ 在[t][d]后读[ɪd],如mended [mendɪd],wanted [wɒntɪd]。
2. 不规则变化(此类称作不规则动词,有很多)

1. 表示过去发生或已经完成的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。常和
just(刚刚),already(已经),yet(还,仍然),ever(曾经),
never(从未),before(以前),so far(到目前为止)等连用。

— Yes, I have. I've just had it.
305— Have you ever heard this song?
— No. I've never heard it before.
Julia has collected over 100 beautiful hair clips so far.

现在完成时用法1:
表示过去发生或已经完成的动作对现在造成的影响或结果。
I have already had breakfast.
2. 现在完成时还可以表示过去某一时间开始并一直持续到现在的动
作或状态,常与“for + 时间段”或“since + 时间点 / 从句”连
用,这时要用延续性动词。
They have worked in this company for 30 years.
He has been in the army since 2016.
(错:He has joined the army since 2016.)
【特别提醒】如果要对for或since短语提问,疑问词用how long。
— How long have you lived in this area?
— For at least 10 years.
图示法表示
现在完成时用法2:
表示过去某一时间开始并一直持续到现在的动作或状态。
I have lived here for 30 years.
(30年来一直生活在这里。)
四、already与yet在现在完成时中的用法解析
306五、现在完成时 VS 一般过去时
1.现在完成时表示过去发生的某一动作对现在造成的影响或结果,强
调的是现在的情况,因此不能和表示过去的时间状语连用。
I have already done my homework.(不能用last night等)
I've been to Paris before.(不能用last year等)
2.一般过去时只表示过去的动作和状态,与现在无关。可以和表示过
去的时间状语连用。
I did my homework last night.
When did you go to Paris? (when一定不要和现在完成时连用)
3. 日常对话中通常两种时态配合使用,开始提到一件事做没做或发
生过时用现在完成时,说起这件事具体情形时用一般过去时。
— Have you been to Japan?
— Yes, I have. I went there last year.
— Who did you go with?

Me neither 的用法
Me neither 是常见的交际用语,表示自己的情况与前面的否定情况一
样,此处相当于 Neither / Nor have I。“Neither / Nor + 情态动词
/ 助动词 / be动词 + 主语”表示前面所述的否定情况也同样适用于
另一个人或物。

— Me neither. ( = Neither / Nor do I. )
【拓展延伸】如果表示自己的情况和前面的肯定情况一样,则用 Me
too 或“So + 情态动词 / 助动词 / be 动词 + I”。“So + 情态动
词 / 助动词 / be动词 + 主语”表示前面所述的肯定情况也同样适用
于另一个人或物。
— I often visit my grandparents on weekends.
— Me too. ( =So do I. )
2. Let's go somewhere different today.
somewhere adv.在某处;到某处
形容词修饰 somewhere 时,形容词应放在 somewhere 之后。适用
于这种用法的词有:some-,any-,every-,no- 构成的复合词。

I want to go somewhere interesting to relax with family.
335【拓展延伸】在否定句和疑问句中,常用 anywhere 代替
somewhere,anywhere 意为“在任何地方”。
Many of these animals are not found anywhere else.
